With my ITA colleagues, I’ve been looking at how to help organizations broaden the scope of the learning function to include informal and social learning, and leverage them to make organizations more successful. This led me to wonder what was the proper category for that work. Is it business information systems?

But one of the promises of social media is that we can arrive at innovation more quickly and test it more quickly. This is interesting. Much of Gladwell's discussion of experimental innovation discussed innovation occurring over very long periods of time (10 years). In many ways, this is exactly how we are approaching Work Literacy.

As I explained about social media metrics, but applies here too, you should be iterating until you achieve the metrics you’ve set. Frequently, the answer is “when we run out of time and money” That’s an understandable answer, but I maintain it’s the wrong answer.

Social media emerged (with all the associated good and bad). This enabled some companies to make tools that could handle the backend, and so individuals could create. There were forms where you could type in content, and the system could handle posting it to the web (e.g. this blog!). So, most anyone could be a web creator.

I’ve been working on a learning design that integrates developing social media skills with developing specific competencies, aligned with real work. The intent is also that the conversations and collaborations be happening in a social media platform. It draws heavily on the notion of activity -based learning.

Social media is carrying messages. The information and decisions the player takes are mediated by real world interfaces, but distributed, not concentrated in one interface. Videos on a phone, or a screen being passed along the way (e.g. an animated billboard or a TV screen in an office) bring information.

Similarly, many also claim to be social. Ratings would be a good thing, but also trying to be a social media platform would not. I’ll suggest that you want such a tool designed to be a portal, not having it grafted onto to another fundamental raison-d’être. Ultimately, such a capability is good.
